Hi!
I think gmane ate my previous posting of this - if its a dupe, I'm sorry...
I'd like to add/remove 'temporary' rules to a running shorewall. I'd
like to add a port forward to redirect web traffic when I shut my
virtual servers down for backups, etc. ("Site currently down for
maintenance please try later" type thing)
It seems silly to bounce/reload shorewall 10 times in an hour for
this, so I was just going to manually add/remove the rule from the
firewall. However, I don't want to break anything Shorewall setup...
So its there a specific table/chain I should add rules like this to
(shorewall creates a lot of them!)? And should I use raw netfilter
commands, or the run_iptables thingy that comes with shorewall?
Any help would be appreciated!
Thanks and Happy New Year!
Steve
